The future of attacks on banking systems

If you’re a regular reader of our news site – or, indeed, any other that site that deals with information and computer security – you might sometimes get the impression that it’s just a matter of time until your computer is infected with banking malware and your money stolen by cyber crooks.

In this podcast, ACROS Security CEO Mitja Kolsek talks about the other two stages of banking attacks and about what we can expect in the future.
